In it, EDGE reports that:

Jose Antonio Vargas' name became synonymous with the immigrant rights movement when he publicly "came out" in a cover story for the New York Times revealing and chronicling his life as an undocumented gay immigrant.

Is a lawbreaker's sexual orientation supposed to excuse his or her lawbreaking?

"Yes, Your Honor, my client freely admits to raping and killing all 30 of those kids. BUT, Your Honor, my client is gay, and is a member of this special protected class. I therefore move for summary dismissal of all charges and immunity from further prosecution of any future crimes committed by my client."

Along with being child molesters, all these illegal perverts have aids and will bankrupt our medical system if we let them stay.

Besides your stupid equation of gays with child molesters and your absurd assumption that all GLBT people (including lesbians) are HIV postive, your statement about medical costs is the height of stupidity. For one thing people purchasing medications add to the economy, not detract from it. More importantly, HIV is not that expensive to treat and will be less so once the patents on protease inhibitor drugs expire. In most patients, it is treated only with medication. Compare that to an organ transplant or someone trying to save a fetus born at five and a half months, both of which can cost millions upfront!

<quoted text>What unbelievable ignorance and bigotry! Next time don't post...

Don't post what? The TRUTH that we already sacrifice too much in order to avoid offending members of some "special class?" Our society is so afraid of offending Muslims, women, Blacks, native Americans, and LBGT people that everyone else is supposed to walk on eggshells and spend all sorts of extra money and forego many of the freedoms we once enjoyed. Now witness the debate on donating blood: As if the entire community should risk DEATH rather than offend anyone with a history of high-risk sexual behavior.

This is political correctness run amok, and it squashes liberty and suppresses freedom.

Mary please..You've sacrificed nothing other than not being able to express your bigoted attitudes in public. All those so called 'freedoms' were at the expense of everyone else and now your crying because you no longer have the ability to take advantage. Typical. You want all of us to pay for your children's education, be benevolent while you discriminate and quiet while you force your false sense of morality on everyone based on your CHOSEN beliefs. Maybe now you just might learn what 'political correctness' and the 'TRUTH' actually is.

Well I reckon both sides are guilty then, since you want to engage in activities that you know to be potentially lethal, yet you want us to bear the consequences of your free choices: Health care for infected participants in your lifestyle, extra costly precautions in all medical fields, threatening the blood and tissue supplies for the sake of political correctness, and restricting everyone else's prerogative to avoid huge insurance premium hikes by not hiring high-risk employees.Undocumented immigrants are here illegally regardless of their sexual orientation. They do not deserve exceptional treatment under the law as members of some "protected class."LEGAL "immigrant rights" are one thing. ILLEGAL immigrants have basic human rights, but not the privileges and rights of citizenship.

Bigotry, Generalizations and Bullsh*t...When you dehumanize groups of people your bigotry might work. Most gay people I know are NOT 'engaging in high risk lifestyle' or no more so than ANY single straight person I know. Yet that derogatory generalization works, so you can discriminate in hiring! Nice..Then use that excuse again, crying about insurance premiums, when in fact the real problem is overpriced medical procedures! How convenient! Now you're going to lump all that with illegal immigration! AGAIN, Unbelievable ignorance and bigotry! How do you function knowing all these 'gays' and 'illegal immigrants' are out to get you? Shameful, that the only thing your really concerned with is losing your own 'protected class' status and the right to discriminate..What ugly arrogance, truly deserving of the label - Bigoted Piece of Sh*t..
